<p>[QUOTE=&quot;xtronic, post: 966343, member: 24288&quot;]Seems like we have already seen a major crash, fairly long recovery to boot. How did silver do? It is down some what.</p><p>Lets ramp that crash up a bit....It would seem you would see a parallel movement down. Working in an industry that uses silver has taught me that silver/iron is like food. If we are poor, we will eat less.....but we gotta eat.</p><p><br /></p><p>The thing that scares me is not the mfg downturn in silver usage but the weird and nebulous paper side of silver. It seems to me that <u>they have the bridle for this beast</u>. Us collectors are a fairly static and calm sort, even buying into weakness....but they play different with the short game and leverage&#039;n.</p><p><br /></p><p>The first time I relized there was a new sherif in town is a few years ago when silver was around $15.....and you could not beg an ounce off of anyone, even online. Ebay had a $4 premium...what does that tell you. Told me that the spot price could be played with by someone and it was not the silver using industries.</p><p><br /></p><p>Would love to hear your thoughts.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
